My Story…

This November, I’m taking on the Philadelphia Marathon. I have committed to raising funds for the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR).


The AACR is the oldest and largest cancer research organization in the world, based in Philadelphia. They are the driving force behind the breakthroughs that lead to better preventions, more accurate diagnoses, and life-saving treatments for all types of cancer.

Every dollar raised through this page goes directly toward funding scientists and innovative clinical trials. 


Almost all of us know someone, a parent, a sibling, a coworker, or a dear friend whose life has been completely upended by this disease. I am running for every person who has had to hear the words "you have cancer," and for those we have lost too soon. Thank you for your generosity, your encouragement, and for joining me in the race against cancer. Let's make every mile count!

Description

The American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) is on the front lines of the quest for new and innovative ways to understand, prevent, and cure cancer. We bring together the greatest minds in cancer science to defeat cancer. The AACR invites you to join us in imagining a world without cancer. More importantly, we invite you to join us in making it happen.
